Image:A-ra.jpg seems to have good old-fashioned 19th-century type "flounces"; not sure this was a favorite cheerleader style (I remember vertical pleats...) -- AnonMoos 22:00, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

That's unquestionably what a ra-ra skirt is supposed to look like, as a Google image search will confirm. Indeed, the existing photo shows fairly similar skirts, not ones with vertical pleats. Cheerleaders wear all sorts of things, and the photo on our article shows plain skirts with neither flounces nor pleats.--Ropeuser 09:50, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
Nowadays, cheerleaders often wear hotpants, as I noted.--Speedoslover 18:13, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
However, the article mentions 1965, and I have my doubts as to whether that's what cheerleaders very commonly wore in the United States in 1965... AnonMoos 07:03, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
